"Travis" wrote in message . .. Man charged with firing gun at rescue helicopter arrested 01:25 PM CDT on Sunday, October 9, 2005 Associated Press A man who allegedly fired a weapon at a rescue helicopter in the day following Hurricane Katrina's hit on New Orleans has been indicted by a federal grand jury. Wendell Bailey, 20, of New Orleans, was charged with firearms possession by a felon and firing upon a military aircraft, prosecutors said. The grand jury accused Bailey of shooting through the window of his apartment as a helicopter flew over his neighborhood. Authorities said they found two revolvers and a box of ammunition under a mattress in his apartment. The charges carry up to 30 years in prison and $500,000 in fines. Bailey had been previously convicted of cocaine distribution, authorities said. No comment Rickets? |

Very authoritative. The final word I'm sure. So you agree that the media propagated "unsubstantiated accusations" (ie Wild Rumor) which, according to the CNN article, impacted the evacuation of at least one hospital which, if CNN's Gupta is to be believed, may have contributed to the death of at least two patients? Or did you gloss over that part of the article as well? No. I was being sarcastic. Sorry it went over your head. I heard the same reports everyone else did. I don't remember exactly where (on which network/which show) I heard about the snipers shooting at helicopters. I do know most of those kinds of reports were prefaced with "officials tell us..." or "we're hearing reports...". If they were unsubstantiated the reporters should have said so. If you are too lazy to scroll back up, here's the link again: SEE ALSO:http://www.cnn.com/2005/HEALTH/09/02/katrina.hospitals/ "We were coming in from a parking deck at Tulane Medical Center, and a guy in a white shirt started firing at us," [Dr. Tyler] Curiel said. "The National Guard [troops], wearing flak jackets, tried to get a bead on this guy. " "We got back to Charity Hospital with with food from Tulane and we said, 'OK the snipers are behind us, let's move on,' " Curiel said. "We started loading patients [for transport] and 20 minutes later, shots rang out." Looks like direct quotes to me. Attribution. Dr. Tyler Curiel said... Then the story goes on to say: 'The National Guard soldiers told staff to get away from the windows, and evacuations were halted.' Hmm, where's the part about evacuations being halted after the helicopter contractor saw reports on CNN? Is it possible your Mr. Gupta is mistaken? And about those two unfortunate people that died, would they have survived if they had been evacuated? A lot of people died in NOLA and, certainly, some of them could have been saved if only... It's just my personal opinion that "Media Lied and People Died" is sensationalistic, unsubstantiated horse****. I'm sorry if that offends your conservative sensibilities. (Which talking point is from the DNC? I don't know anyone in the DNC, do you? And I never hear their talking points. You certainly have one of their techniques down pat. The one where, before you have all of the pertinent details on a given issue, begin bashing the Military/Bush. There's further prrof in your reply where, when someone points out your wholly false, knee-jerk presumption that you are using to bash the military/Bush, you become immediately indignant. or bemused. You do know the difference? At some point, I expect and Emily Latella "Oh... never mind...." out of you. There goes my next line! What's the next subject that you intend to froth about? "Endangered Feces"? Yeah, no ****. I'm still trying to get over "The media lied, people died". Talk about knee-jerk talking points! Tell that to CNN's Gupta who says the death of at least two patients could be attributed in part to the interruption in evacuations. Siad interruption in evacuations was caused by unsubstantiated rumors of sniper fire at the hospital being reported by CNN and the MSM. He's not taking my calls. and he doesn't post on this NG. But you do, so it's you that I'm answering. If Gupta's right about the patients dying due to halted evacs, then the title "The media lied, people died" is either reasonably accurate (by MSM standards) or spot-on accurate (by civil court standards). And if he's wrong? "Blame the Media" is right there in Chapter One of the Dittohead's Handbook, right before "Environmental tree-hugging wackos are ruining our profits!" If you say so. I can't say I'm as familiar as you seem to be with them. However, in the case at hand, it's apparently quite probable that the media should rightfully assume responsibility for their irresponsible reporting. Or is it now acceptable to yell fire in a crowded theater? The media should assume responsibility for ALL their reporting. Most legitimate news organizations do. Pleasure to be of service! Don't bother. Oh, there's really no effort involved... I know. But you do tend to take this personally. Greg |

Or did you gloss over that part of the article as well? No. You think the media stuck solely with the truth? It was true that roomers were rampant - all kinds of rumors. If news people didn't make clear in their reports what was verified and what was rumored, then they screwed up for sure. I was being sarcastic. Or flippant. Same thing. Sorry it went over your head. That's ok. You'll get over it. I heard the same reports everyone else did. I don't remember exactly where (on which network/which show) I heard about the snipers shooting at helicopters. I do know most of those kinds of reports were prefaced with "officials tell us..." or "we're hearing reports...". If they were unsubstantiated the reporters should have said so. The reporters apparently didn't bother to keep notes or otherwise name the source, cuz they aint' saying. If it was from "some official", I'm sure they would be shouting it to the rooftops as their excuse for sloppy, yellow journalism. If you are too lazy to scroll back up, here's the link again: SEE ALSO:http://www.cnn.com/2005/HEALTH/09/02/katrina.hospitals/ "We were coming in from a parking deck at Tulane Medical Center, and a guy in a white shirt started firing at us," [Dr. Tyler] Curiel said.

Makes you wonder why he, and the reporter, are not speaking now. Or, as Gupta says, "We don't know where these snipers went -- if they were caught, shot or what happened." Could be luck of the draw for the bad guys, or it could be convenient for Curiel. Who knows? Not I. Then the story goes on to say: 'The National Guard soldiers told staff to get away from the windows, and evacuations were halted.' I don't see that anywhere in the text of story at the CNN link. Where did you find that? From this link which was hyperlinked in the Tech Central Station story: http://www.cnn.com/2005/WEATHER/09/0...per/index.html I thought it was the same CNN link you supplied but it isn't. guess I WAS too lazy to scroll back up! Hmm, where's the part about evacuations being halted after the helicopter contractor saw reports on CNN? Same CNN link. That article doesn't say one way or another. It doesn't claim media reports, hospital staff or someone else halted the flights. Another set of missing witnesses are all the other pilots in the air, and the ATC's controlling them. Last I heard, the FAA (who was running one investigation into the claims) could not find any pilot or ATC that heard any reports of aircraft being fired upon during the week after the hurricane hit. I understand their investigation continues, so they just might find someone yet. I just occurs to me that it really shouldn't be that difficult to find one pilot or ATC who heard *ANY* radio traffic similar to "HOLY CRAP THEY'RE SHOOTING AT US!!", if it actually happened during that timeframe. You'd think that kind of radio trafic would be memorable. Is it possible your Mr. Gupta is mistaken? It is *entirely* possible. That seemed to be an all too common and frequent trait of the big Media broadcasters in NOLA during the week after Katrina hit. And about those two unfortunate people that died, would they have survived if they had been evacuated? A lot of people died in NOLA and, certainly, some of them could have been saved if only... What? FEMA rolled in with their helicopters? Do you know how many helicopters FEMA has? One? Two? I don't know - they may not have *any*. After all, they aren't expected to be first-responders, or even second(?) responders. FEMA primarily writes checks and tries to coordinate the follow-on response. In any event, it's a safe bet they have far fewer than the Louisiana National Guard has (and they were *right* there, relatively speaking). Do you know who commands the Louisiana Nationa Guard? Gov Blanco? No, I agree, if only everyone had done their job and followed a coordinated plan. I'm not excusing anyone. It's just my personal opinion that "Media Lied and People Died" is sensationalistic, unsubstantiated horse****. I'm sorry if that offends your conservative sensibilities. (Which talking point is from the DNC? I don't know anyone in the DNC, do you? And I never hear their talking points. You certainly have one of their techniques down pat.

"Blame the Media" is right there in Chapter One of the Dittohead's Handbook, right before "Environmental tree-hugging wackos are ruining our profits!" If you say so. I can't say I'm as familiar as you seem to be with them. However, in the case at hand, it's apparently quite probable that the media should rightfully assume responsibility for their irresponsible reporting. Or is it now acceptable to yell fire in a crowded theater? The media should assume responsibility for ALL their reporting. Most legitimate news organizations do. Blitzer's already taken responsibility for the "incredible" job the reporters did covering NOLA, when someone tried to criticize the coverage. I guess "Incredible" is one way to put it... Pleasure to be of service! Don't bother. Oh, there's really no effort involved... I know. But you do tend to take this personally. I'm endeavoring to follow your lead! Think nothing of it! Then follow me now. I'm off to dinner. As far as the media situation is concerned, I rely mostly on print media for well researched, well reported, in-depth news, and on broadcast news for the headlines. As I said before, I think the media got it right most of the time in a very difficult situation. The bad news is, we get to see it all played over again soon with Wilma - hopefully not as bad tho.
